DIY Origami Ornaments Make Beautiful Christmas Party Decorations

December 19, 2015 by Dana Hinders

origami ornaments

If you’re on the hunt for inexpensive yet stunning handmade party decorations that will continue to add charm to your space long after the event is over, these origami ornaments are a fantastic choice! Not only are they budget-friendly, but they also have a sophisticated elegance that will make them stand out. What I love most about these ornaments is the beautiful color scheme and the added touch of metallic beaded tops, which give them a refined, high-end look that’s perfect for any occasion.

Making these origami ornaments is a simple yet rewarding project. To create each ornament, you’ll need two sheets of origami paper, liquid glue, a paintbrush, thread, and beads. The materials are easily accessible, and once you’ve got everything together, you can start folding your paper into beautiful shapes. The process is enjoyable and allows for a lot of creativity, so you can mix and match colors and designs to fit the theme of your event or simply to suit your personal style.

These ornaments aren’t just for parties either—once the event is over, they can be displayed in your home as a unique, handmade keepsake that reminds you of the good times. They can be hung on the wall, draped across a mantel, or even used as a part of your holiday decorations. Plus, they make wonderful, thoughtful gifts for friends and family members who appreciate handmade artistry.

To guide you through the creation process, All Things Paper offers detailed instructions, including helpful video tutorials to make sure you can follow along every step of the way. Whether you’re an origami pro or a beginner, these ornaments are a fun and rewarding way to add a personal touch to your celebration.

. You’ll need two sheets of origami paper, liquid glue, a paintbrush, thread, and beads for each ornament you wish to make. Visit All Things Paper for complete instructions, including video tutorials.

Cross Stitch Ice Cream and Frozen Treats

Summer is the time for sweet treats, whether eating them or stitching them. This collection of patterns is full of designs that are good enough to eat. Almost. 

This year of ice creams from Simone Balman Art is lots of fun, and you could also stitch up these treats individually if you’d rather. The full piece is 210 by 300 stitches, though it’s not full coverage. It uses 25 colors and comes out to 13.6 by 20.1 inches, or 34.5 by 51.2 cm, as shown on 14 count fabric. 

These mini Popsicles from Mariana Gonclaves ART as super sweet and quick to stitch. These would also be a fun border to another summer project. The full design is 43 by 46 stitches, which is 3.1 by 3.3 inches, or 7.8 by 8.3 cm, on 14 count fabric. 

Sam X Stitch has this fun sweet treat sampler, which again would be fun to stitch as individual pieces (maybe on napkins?). In all it calls for 18 colors and measures 153 by 153 stitches. That comes out to 10.93 inches or 27.75 cm on 14 count fabric. 

Another great sampler is this one with ice cream and other sweet treats from Cute Patterns by Maria. At 119 by 132 stitches total, working the full pattern would be about 8.6 by 9.4 inches, or 22 by 24 cm on 14 count fabric, and it uses 33 colors. You can also stitch individual designs, which range in height from 35 to 45 stitches, and in width from 11 to 28. 

This collection of four sundae patterns from Stichrovia would be fun to make for a kitchen or a teen’s room. Each pattern is around 40 by 50 stitches, so they should fit in a four or five inch hoop if worked on 14 count fabric. 

Or stitch up one of the treats from Stitch Chart Studio‘s collection of seven ice cream cross stitch patterns. These range in size and in number of colors needed, but most would fit in a five or six in hoop (and one in a four inch hoop).
